Should I marry this person?

Should I take the job?

Should I trust him?

Big or small, regardless of what decisions you're facing, fortune favours the decisive.

And being able to make decisions is a skill which will prove invaluable in your general well-being and success.

But how can we make sure we always make the right decision?

Well… I’m glad you asked.

In the next 10 minutes I’m going to share the key insights from Forensic psychologist Laurence Allison’s & Neil Shortland's book 'decision time', which has literally changed how I approach all decision making in my life for the better.

We’ll cover the 2 main barriers to good decision making, how to understand our own psychology and how to utilise the STAR method to make ANY decision flourish, whether it be choosing where to eat for dinner, who to marry or what career path to take.
